Hi all , i am thinking of getting a monitor but once i surveyed the price , monitors are quite expensive compared to TV,s .

For example , a 24 inch monitor is at least rm 600 and i can get a decent 32 inch TV for that..Anyone using tv to play here?..appreciate if you can share your experiences.

am just thinking of this since last week. i do programming and needs larger screen and thking having a 32" lcd on my table is way must more productive

The experience will be somewhat different between Monitor and LCD TV. The TV is built for a far away viewing while monitor is a short distance viewing. If you TV, you will have difficulties to view words intensive app.

i tried doing dota on tv before, my eyes hurt after a while

nt sure if its bcz of the settings or diff display tech for tv and pc monitor

I did played dota on TV. My eyes so hurt and burn , item looks tiny heroes on mini map so blur some more sit damn front of TV.

I contemplated once also but then gave up after reading some articles.

But seems to be gamer's face problem too.

I have a desktop attached to 42" Plasma TV of 1080p, and mostly used to stream movies and home network.

if u get 4k or 8k tv is ok.
